after eros and psyche

By Michele NampalliPublished 5 months ago • 1 min read

Write towards you

***

They wrote

a mnemonic, I trash

eros

***

I close my eyes

to hold running water in cupped hands

as it leaks into the wild grass of some day

***

A steak's psyche

is a steak until you add rosemary

Then it’s a married piece of meat

a trudging bovine

a fucking bull

charging a red beyond

***

I watched him shake off his temper

dust his hooves

and feed at my hand

About the Creator

Michele Nampalli

This space is breath for my sensitivity. The poems come fully formed. I've known for quite some time now that my art is about receiving more than creation...its the most natural way I know to process my inner world. It started when I was 7.
